Empoli vs Lazio prediction 04.05.2025 | Serie A

• Competition: Serie A
• Date: Sunday, 4th May 2025
• Kickoff: 11:30 UK / 12:30 CEST
• Venue: Stadio Carlo Castellani (Empoli)

After four seasons in Serie A, Empoli are in danger of relegation with two points less than safety. However, the upcoming tie against Lazio is by far the most challenging for Empoli for the rest of the season, and picking up one point on Sunday would be very satisfying. Empoli are in a terrible run of 19 Serie A matches without a victory. In the previous game, they lost 2-1 on the road against Fiorentina. According to the stats, Empoli were fairly even with the opponents, but once again, they ended empty-handed. 

For Lazio, every point is crucial, too. They are seventh on the table but with only two points fewer than fourth-placed Juventus, so Marco Baroni's team still has solid chances for the Champions League appearance next season. Lazio are undefeated in the last four matches. In the previous game, they played 2-2 at home against Parma. The home side conceded two goals at the start of each half but salvaged a point late in the game. Losing two points against Parma could be costly at the end of the season. 

Empoli vs Lazio pick: Lazio to win

Although Lazio weren't at their best in the last match against Parma, they still should be much better than the struggling Empoli. Lazio beat Empoli 2-1 in the first part of the season. We should expect a similar game on Sunday at Stadio Carlo Castellani.
